The following is a transcription of a phone post that originally appeared in my main journal, here.

Okay, Saturday night's update from the hotel in Sandwich. Made it here okay although it was really windy crossing the Bourne Bridge and otherwise things were okay. Came in, had supper, hit the hot tub actually, which was kind of nice. Discovered I had blistered one of my toes in my cycling sandals, so took care of that. Otherwise had a real good day. Very tired, so I'm going down right now, going to bed. Up tomorrow morning at 5 with an anticipated 6am depart. Gonna try and meet up with Jay. I did meet up with him at Mass Maritime, but would actually like to do some riding with him this weekend. The sad news is that tomorrow looks like it's going to be a pretty substantial rainstorm. At least it'll be mid-70s temperature-wise, but it's gonna be a washout by the sounds. It eventually may be clearing off a little bit in the afternoon, but the morning (obviously we're leaving at 6am) the morning's gonna be pretty wet. Really not looking forward to that, but it'll just slow down the Sunday ride a little bit as well. Next update probably may be around 6, when I leave here, or it may be a little bit later at the first rest stop, which I think is in Barnstable, which is not very far down the road. But I'm gonna get some shuteye and try and let the legs recuperate overnight, and I'll talk to you tomorrow.
